The Mayor of the little town of Share-A-Lot causes a problem when she says she does the most important work in town. The community workers stop sharing their goods and services to prove they are the most important. FREE paper dolls and paper clothing/uniforms of 6 community workers provided with book purchase.
The egotistical Mayor of the small town of Share-A-Lot is in quite a quandary. The townspeople are in an uproar over her latest initiative. The business owners and community workers are on strike. The doctor won't see any patients, the judge won't hold court and the police won't stop crime! The voters may initiate a recall and oust the Mayor!
Young readers see the Mayor grapple with the question of who the most important citizen is in the town. Is it the doctor who cures the aches and cures the ills without collecting on unpaid bills? Is it the judge of law who turns a first offender loose if they give a good excuse? Or is it the Mayor herself who has won elections for two decades, made speeches and led parades?
The Little Town of Share-A-Lot is a spirited and engaging story that uses repetitive language to teach career education and the value of sharing to young children.
Excerpt
The Mayor said, "I thought everyone knew that the most important citizen is the Mayor. I do all the important work in the town."
The townspeople all shouted at the Mayor.
"Anything you can do, I can do better. I can do anything better than you!"
"No you can't," yelled the Mayor.
:Yes I can," each citizen shouted back.
"No you can't," the Mayor insisted.
"Yes I can," each citizen yelled right back.
"No you can't!"
"Yes I can, yes I can, yes I can. Humpf!"
And with that everyone turned their backs on the Mayor.
Well, what a MESS this was!
